    such a horrible school. the dance department is full of the most degrading, awful, selfish, judgemental girls you will EVER meet in your life. no one deserves to go through what i (and others) went through. going here only lead to me receiving frequent therapy for anxiety. the teachers are ok though. please do do not send your children here if they have any sort of anxiety or depression, i guarantee you it will worsen it.

    One of the best Catholic art schools in the GTA and just located right beside the district school boards - both public and Catholic. If you attend the Visual Arts program here, prepare to dish out more money to spend on homework and projects. Plenty of food stalls in the area so if you decide to leave building grounds, there are lots of food options. Parking grounds do not exist because it’s by Yonge street. It’s better to take public transportation to get there.

    Okay overall school. Did not enjoy the overall experience. Teachers slack on academics and students always miss school or show up late. For music, extremely long rehearsal times. School has no physical education classes, so can easily gain weight. Lack sport teams or any other engaging extra-curricular. But great if you just want to be good at nothing. Music programs only promote those who are teachers’ pet.

    Teachers and staff here are very nice!! I just have a problem with the janitorial staff. Most of them always have this crummy look on their faces and keep a stern eye on us. They also smoke in the loading dock where they think nobody will notice. Whenever they do smoke, it just causes the backstage area (green room) of the theatre reek!! Just please do your job and smoke outside of school property. Overall, 4 stars!

    I had only spent one year in the strings program at this school, and I’m so glad I didn’t spend the rest of my highschool years. The staff is awful. The student counselor especially. They all have very strange entitled behaviors (who knows why) and the atmosphere is extremely toxic. Also the teachers are almost all white and it’s just weird.

    I am proud to write that because of this school's enthusiasm in the field of arts, my daughter went here for 3 years and I see that this centre brought the best out of her. I had my daughter attend this centre from 2019 to 2022 as she always had a passion for art since her toddler years. I can see this school accelerated her interest thereby resulting in success in the field of arts. To this day, her talent has allowed her to develop many personal skills such as critical thinking, creativity (thinking outside the box), and much more. The staff are all wonderful and I have nothing but good things to say about this centre.

    Wonderful school. I would not be who I am today if it were not for the amazing staff and students at Cardinal Carter. Those four years were everything to me and I'll never forget them. Thanks Mr. Hauser, you are the best music teacher ever!

    I have never stepped foot in this place but I keep getting automated messages calling me from their phone number with a fraud scam. Don't know if the owner is in on this, but I'd think that's pretty bad for business, no? I certainly would never use the services of a business that's trying to con innocent people out of their hard earned money.

    Good education but very strange school merchandise sales. They will sell you a very cheap hoodie with the schools name on it for 80+ dollars and not even allow you to wear it in the school. The principal is too uptight, good school though
